I am pretty convinced that if I look at IE intently enough it will crash. – Rook Feb 8 '12 at 6:56

Can't see how this is a security question - if so you might want to re-word it: if not Stack OVerflow is probably a better place to post it. – Graham Hill Feb 8 '12 at 9:38

If you're running trivial loops and fork bombs, then what's causing your browser to crash is you.

Real crashes are caused by programming failures. The author didn't think something would happen, and then it happened. Often these mistakes are in plugins, such as flash, java, acrobat, toobars, etc. That'd be the first place I look.
